Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Too much food for thought there Stephanie.
No worries - I just felt bad for posting something so not-interesting. Posting is a fine line - interesting to me but not to dull to the rest of the world. Anyway, I'm sure someone will eventually come along with good info for me.
In Me news... cold is growing.
Oh no! It's way too nice outside here to have a cold!
the Metro lines ran well out into the 'burbs in all directions, so you might want to look at how close some of those lines come to where you're considering living
In MD, at least, most of the Metro stops are not convenient to residential areas. (Technically, I could walk to either Friendship Heights or Bethesda on the red line growing up, but it would have been over a mile in either direction.)
My in-laws are currently living in Pengaton City, and they like it quite a bit. They do have a car, but they can also walk to a ton of stuff right in their neighborhood.
No, not boring at all, Stephanie!!
You're going to rent, right? You might want to start just looking at Craigslist seeing what's available at that pricepoint. I mean, if the only three bedroom apartments/houses that are coming up are in Anacostia and Frederick, well...you'll know that either you'd need to add to the housing allowance, or give in and live in Frederick. Or consider making Ellie and Frisco share a bedroom. :)
We have friends who are building a house in Fredricksburg but that looks really far away to me.
yes, it is. Would easily be a 1.5-2 hour commute.
Joe's job is not for sure yet but it will likely be either in the Pentagon or maybe at Ft. McNair.
Pentagon's technically in VA, you could look in Arlington or Alexandria easily.
Also, marital shenanginans accomplished OMG.
The DH, who was off covering a Jeep thing in Telluride, got up at 2:00 am on Sunday to take the little plane to the big plane to home and then almost immediately had to start getting ready for the wedding we went to in the afternoon. I must say it is a true pleasure to have an exhausted husband make with the shenanigans, and say he just had to because "You looked so beautiful at the wedding."
Stephanie, not boring at all!!! I'm v. much looking forward to having you back on the mainland.
Hi y'all. My dear silly boy has told me what he's getting me for my birthday, which was off a list I provided. I'm so amused I don't even care that I won't be surprised.
Stephanie, not boring at all. Moving is an adventure! (trust me, I know all too well).

Tell me about it. Finally, walking between the two buildings was a nice experience and not a dance in walkwherethereisshade thing. And here I am sniffling and running low on tissues. Once these things are blown, I'm outta here. To pick up more, and since the market is right next to home. BAM. to the lay-z-boy I go! Gatorade, tylenol, remote control, and blankie.
Teppy, power~ma.
Stephanie, good luck making the decision about where to live. It's a difficult decision to make.
In news no one will be surprised about -- people looking for employees are not always smart.
I've answered two phone calls today for DH today. I explained to them -- the cell phone is a better way to get in touch with him. The second guy tried to complain about only getting voice mail.Well d'uh , he is at work. and the soonest he will get a message at home, is hours after he gets a voice mail off the phone that is attached to him
